Show Multiple Userfroms Without Passing Control To Any Of Them
Jul 16, 2009
I am thinking of creating a "summery" macro that would run at the end of my workbook and would show all the userforms needed(up to 10-20 forms) at the same time one on top of another kind of staggered.(like windows would do). However I realized that when I code userform.show then the "summery" macro would pass control to the form that was just shown, and wait for it to be unloaded before progressing to the next line of code. for example;

Passing an array from a sub to another sometimes works, sometimes not. But when I call the same sub twice, it definately gets stuck at least at the second time. Seems as if I tend to lose some of my items of the array. And I cannot figure out why it happens, at what pace it happens or how I could stop this from happening.
1.Could it be that a control perishes as soon as it is set to 'ctrl.enabled=false'? 2.Or could it be that a declared array 'ary=array(tb1,cb1,frm1)' can not be handled without having had its items initialized with some lines of code, although the items visibly exist within the user form? 3. Can it be that a Sub 'remembers' the former values passed to it, if set to 'optional'?
However, I have added a cleared/minimized version of my userform as a file to this post, hoping that some of you out there might find the time to have a look at it.... I would really appreciate it. I have added the decisive parts of the macro below here, as well,
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim elem As Variant
Dim wSht As Worksheet
Dim ctrl As Control
'set control arrays
'[...]
ctrlAllStep2 = Array(cbTimeOnly, cbIntensityOnly, cbAreaOnly) '[...]
ctrlAllStep3 = Array(tbIntensityTotal, tbIntensityBleached) '[...]
MsgBox "Two Controls exist now: 1." & ctrlAllStep2(0). name & ", 2. " & ctrlAllStep2(1).name, vbInformation, "Note: controls exist..."
'disable Controls in Step2 and in Step3....................

Over in the following thread
[url]
you can see we've hit a problem with the Calendar Control object.
I submitted a workbook which has an Activex calendar control embedded on a User Form. On my PC everything appears as you'd expect, with the calendar showing the individual days in the calendar matrix. However when the user loads the form on their system, although they see the calendar as you'd expect, and they can change the month & year at the top of the calendar, they don't see the individual day numbers, 1,2,3 etc. within the body of the calendar.

Ive made a worksheet with a userform and ListBox. The listbox is filled with names. If you click on the last button a msgbox with your selected names is displayed. If you select the button without a selection from the listbox a message pop ups to warn that no selection is made. If you select any name afterwards and click on the button the message still pops up unless you select the first entry from the list ("natalie") then the code is right executed. I'm struggeling with the code for several days. I wonder if by any change somebody wants to correct the code. (I've uploaded my sheet)

I have a form that is dynamically created at runtime. I have assigned the controls to a frame in VBA and also attached a horizontal scrollbar manually to that frame.
How can I control the scrollbar in VBA to appear, when columns of controls added to the frame exceeds 10. If not I want the scrollbar to be invisible?
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Const cTextBoxHeight As Long = 16
Const cTextBoxWidth As Long = 40
Const cGap As Long = 10
Dim W As Integer
Dim a As Integer

I'm trying to do is set up a form load event to initlize some controls. Here is my
Private Sub Form_Load()
'Initialize the form
lblProcessing.Visible = False
txtFileName.Text = "Enter a file name"
End Sub
At the moment, this event is not triggering. I have the code in the code behind my form - should it be in a module? PS: This site is great - it's answered a lot of my other questions so far without me having to make any posts.

I have 3 different pivot tables (with 3 different data sources) on 3 seperate sheets (sheet2, sheet3 & sheet4). Each pivot table has a report filter which contains employees names. On sheet 1 I have a sort of 'dashboard' set up feeding from the data in the pivot tables, and a combo box form control from which I can select the employees names.
Currently, if I want to see John's data, I need to go to Sheet1 and select 'John' from the report filter, then goto Sheet2 and select 'John' from the report filter & the same for Sheet 3. I was wondering if it is possible to somehow link the pivot tables to the combo box - so that when I select 'John' from the combo box on Sheet1, it automatically selects 'John' in the report filters on sheets 2,3, & 4.

I want to display mutliple columns in a form control combobox. Tried activex and the easy part was the multiple columns. I couldn't get the activex combobox to update properly when a cell value changed.
The form control combobox updates properly but it is only displaying the first column of my named range.

Have a slick way to have multiple textboxes on a userform updatable by a single calendar control located on it's own userform.
basically, i have a userform with multiple textboxes. A double click brings up another userform with a calendar control. How do you idenitfy which textbox called up the calendar?

I have an excel application which works extremely well in one single instancec. It has a bunch of ActiveX control objects on the worksheet. Generally I call them by convention Sheet1.Cmd.show.
I have since experimented with having multiple instances of excel running on the machine. I start to notice something very strange. The first instance I open and run all the activeX buttons are all clickable. As soon as I open a second instance of an excel program all the activeX buttons on the worksheet are not even clickable. They are enabled by my program, but not clickable as if they were not there at all.
I also try open a normal excel workbook then followed by my excel program in a second instance. Even though the first excel file does not utilize any activeX objects all my buttons on the subsequent instance are not clickable.
The weird thing is all my activeX control objects on a userforms are still clickable and call to all my planned events in my program. It is just all the activeX controls on my worksheet that do not have any reaction at all.
I always think when one opens a new instance it will be totally indpendent and would even occupy another CPU if my machine has more in it. If they are truly independent then I am at a loss to understand why my activeX controls would fail to work at all.

Excel – Forms – Combo Box, cell updating.
I have a form (the main one) which accesses a second form, which accesses a third form. All forms have a combo box, control button and a text box.
The items selected in the control boxes are entered into cells (the base cells) in the spreadsheet, via “Control Source”. The text boxes access these cells and show the selected items, which are then copied to other cells via a macro on activating the control button in the main form.
The main form stays open while other items are selected and transferred. Some of the items may not be changed (reselected) as they may be common. The problem is that after a number of items have been selected and transferred, the base cells for the second and third text boxes do not update after a selection from the combo boxes, and they continue to show a previously selected item.
The problem can be solved by closing the 2nd and 3rd forms and starting again. What can I do keep the cells updating without closing the form down?

I need to establish a method of interleating multiple dropdowns or Form Control boxes. The purpose is to select one item and have a selection of multiple items associated with the selected item. Example:
Computer training dropdown box 1 offers selections of word, excel, powerpoint, ... If selection is Word, then dropdown box#2 offers advanced in room #15, Intermediate in room #16, Beginning in room #17. If Box 1 selection is excel box 2 selections would be different.

My problem is I cannot copy from a Form Control drop down box, and I need to do this for ~10 drop down boxes in about 200 xls files. The files follow a template so the drop down button Inputs are uniform. Here is some more detail:
I’m building an Access Database so that our data (currently in many, many Excel Spreadsheets) can be efficiently queried. The old system was that when asset data was collected, the data would be entered into an Excel spreadsheet, using a Template. So for example:
Project A1234
Name
Main Street Pipe
High Street Pipe
Ref No.
12345
12346
Installation date
22/08/13
19/07/12
X Coordinate
55667
99212
Y Coordinate
77889
12364
We have hundreds of these files, but I managed to get all the files in one folder and Paste and Transpose the data from the relevant Cell Ranges in each file (using a VB sub) into ONE summary sheet. Success; or so I thought.
Unfortunately for one generation of the template (people changed them slightly every year), the template had people enter information into Drop Down Menus. Not a problem when they’re associated with a cell, but these were free floating Form Controls.. so you can’t actually click and copy from them, or call them in VB as you would a specific cell.. afaik.
So my issue is how can I extract the data from those Form Buttons? I’ll try and provide as much info as I can:
Firstly I tried to find some sort of identifier for each Form Button. The dropdowns are called Combo Boxes, (Developer tab > Insert > Combo Box (Form Control) ), and when you select them (by right clicking) and hit the View Code button in Developer Tab > Controls the following shows up in VB.
Sub DropDown44_Change()
End Sub
I’m guessing that the number is related to the button so that’s one useful thing, an identifier of sorts. There’s no actual code there though really from what I can see.. My problem is I have no idea how to extract from DropDown44!
The range of values in the drop down comes from a separate sheet where there’s just a list of the values. There aren’t any cells linked to the drop downs though. If I enter a cell in (Right Click) Format Control > Cell link: then it prints the number (e.g. 4) of the value in the range. So if the drop down options are “Monday”, “Tuesday”, “Wednesday”, “Thursday” and “Thursday” is selected, the linked cell says: “4”.
They didn’t link a cell, then I could call that cell in a VB sub and the job would be done. Unfortunately they didn’t, so I tried Recording a Macro and selecting the drop down form control.. That didn’t really work, except if I right clicked it, I got some more info from the macro VB:
ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("Drop Down 19")).Select
So is my drop down an Array? My understanding of an Array is that it’s a list of arguments.. all I get there is the name of the button. I am not experienced in VB so this is as far as I’ve got. Perhaps I can get a sub to select the button using the above line, but I need the info from it, i.e. which value is currently selected in the Drop Down.
(Using Excel 2010 but the .xls files are from ~2005)

I have created a userform within VBA which has a TreeView Control and a Spreadsheet control on it.
I have populated the TreeView control with data and what I want to be able to do is to drag the nodes off the TreeView control to the spreadsheet control.
I can drag onto a normal worksheet but not onto the spreadsheet control (the no drop mouse pointer keeps showing).

How do I determine which control the user is currently modifying on a multipage form (either changing, enterying or exiting the specific control). when I use "userform1.activecontrol" i get "multipage1" as the control name but I need the actual control on the specific active multipage. (also the .TABINDEX is for the multipage regardless of the on-page control) I use a generic data-field change SUBroutine so need the control name (and the TABINDEX) to provide my SELECT CASE. (so every fieldname_CHANGE calls the same SUB [with no parameters])

I am trying to populate a worksheet that takes information from a table on another worksheet. I have to match three columns and show multiple entries for each correct match. Attached is a sample worksheet.
Invoice.xlsx
The information should be on the "Invoice" sheet. The cells in green are what will be given. The cells in yellow are what should be grabbed from table 1 on "June Sands Tracking Sheet"
The delivery date, Customer and truck number are the given fields.
from there I want it to search the table and populate "Truck BOL #","Sand Yard","Time In Staging", "Time Out of Location", and "Sand Type"
I tried this formula in the BOL # column but it wouldn't work
=IF(OR(C10={"",""}),"",IF(COUNTIFS(Table1[Delivery Date],$B$7,Table1[Truck '#],$E$7)=0,"No Entry",IFERROR(INDEX(Table1[BOL'#],SMALL(IF(Table1[Delivery Date]=$B$7,IF(Table1[Truck '#]=$E$7,ROW(Table1[BOL'#])-MIN(ROW(Table1[BOL'#]))+1)),ROWS(C$11:C19))),"")))

I have an excel spreadsheet that has about 40,000 rows....and about 30 columns across. The two columns I'm writing this about is column "PO#" and column titled "VALUE". The PO# column will have a number such as 4500234567...and the value column will have the cost of the PO#, for example $5,000.
Now within the the spreadsheet the PO# number and value will be listed multiple times....and there are hundreds of PO#'s listed, with its value.
I would like to perform some kind of filter on a seperate worksheet (? or whatever i needed) that would show the PO# number and value once.

I am currently maintaining a database that keeps up to date records of employees in my company and their vacations including their nationality dept. etc. for the vacation reports i have a "last day of work," "return to work date," "Actual Return to work date," and at the end a "remarks" column,
Moreover I need to report how many employees per department/Discipline are on leave ex. ( mechanical, electrical, and so on.) That I did using countifs having whoever is remarked as "na" vs. actual return date, Discipline vs. each discipline. All works fine but what i want to ask is there anyway that i can list the names of employees that are on vacation under each discipline?? Ie. if 3 are in the electrical engineering department, can i list their names? or if Today()>Actual Return to Work day (ie they are late and have not arrived yet) is there a way that it can list the names of multiple employees? rather than having to work against each name etc.

I have an Excel sheet with several thousand rows. Now I want to create a report using this Excel file such that when I print the Excel File it must be limited to a specific number of row for instance 100 rows per page and at the bottom of that page I want Excel to display the sum of the above 100 rows for one single column. If I do this manually it would take hours therefore I want either a Macro for this or some shortcut to achieve what I am looking for.

In the attached file (xlsx) under 'Database' Tab poeple have indicated their preferences (multiple choices) for different food items "specialties". The specialties are grouped under broader buckets called "groups". The specialties are bucketed into groups in a way that people end up more than once in each specialties and groups due to their muliple selections. When we create a pivot by specialties (Pivot Specialties tab), each person appears only once for each specialty...it's great. But, when we create a "group" pivot (each group has multiple specialties), now, people appear more than once for each group. Is there a way, each person can show up only once under each group so the group count does not appear to be misleading?

I'm trying to create a formula (used in sheet 2 column B) that would generate the results in sheet2.B based on the contents of sheet 1. sheet2.B2 would contain a formula searching for the both "Y" in sheet1.C and the text in sheet2.A2 (in this case "E&P"). When each match is found, the contents of sheet1.A should be returned to sheet2.B, as shown in the mockup. There will be multiple matches (at least 15-20) for each search criteria, and I don't know how many there will be ahead of time.
I've tried various formulas, and they either have incorrect syntax and return every row in a range, or only return the first match correct match each time instead of all correct matches. I found some UDFs posted online that claim to do this, but I've gotten them into the spreadsheet and they generate # NUM errors. I would prefer to work with Excel-native formulas if possible, because I'm going to eventually hand this off to someone else to maintain and they may not have the level of expertise to deal with UDFs.

I am looking to adapt a piece of code (originally created by Ger Plante) so that it autofilters multiple columns of a table. I have three data validated lists that need to search 3 different columns in the table and filter accordingly, but also show all if no hits are made (hence why Ger Plante's code) was perfect in most respects. I would ideally like to keep the code as a Worksheet_Change event, but can deal with it being run as a normal Macro via a button if this is necessary.
[URL]....
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B1")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A5:C5").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=IIf(Trim(Range("B1").Text) = "", "<>", "=") & Range("B1").Text
End If

I have a workbook with 50 sheets. Within each sheet are rows of text that I need to search for specific text.
I'd like to search each row from each sheet for specific words (e.g. "7 days") then show the resulting rows data/text in a new sheet along with the name of the sheet and row number it came from.
e.g.
Sheet 1 contains the text "7 Days" on line 40
Sheet 2 contains the text "7 Days" on line 1, 30, 50
In a new sheet, I would show the entire row in its own row that contains the text "7 Days" along with the name of the sheet and row number it was found in
